That's not the only syntax.
DO [LANGUAGE lang_name] code
also works, e.g.:
CREATE LANGUAGE plperl;
CREATE TABLE foo(id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, t TEXT);
DO LANGUAGE plperl $$spi_exec_query(q[INSERT INTO foo(t) VALUES('aaa')]);$$;
SELECT * FROM foo;
The DO LANGUAGE lang_name code syntax is much clearer, as far as I'm
concerned, than putting the code block before the language anyhow. :)
